Froch may earn Sky deal for next defence

already covered

 

Im telling you if I was froch I'd call up Wards people , offer them the fight next on neutral ground and if I didnt get it I'd tell the Super Six to go **** itself.

As much as I admire Glen Johnson , Carl having to fight him first is madness .

 

**** sky.......

let primetime keep him, they just need to get his ame out there more.

 

He's meeting Sky this week.

 

Mick better not **** this up by demanding too much.

 

Source?

 

Works both ways. Sure Hennessy is clueless, but at the same time some suit at sky who will probably knows **** all about boxing and cant appreciate what Froch has done can't expect to think Froch will take the same money as Booth and Munroe, no disrespect to both. Froch should be earning what Haye gets off them, but he wont get that.

They need to stop wasting money on absolute shite like Khan and Haye PPVs

And get the Cobra out there. Hes one of the most exciting fighters in the world

 

Getting to the negotiating table is an achievement in itself. Unless the beeb and/or ITV show interest, he won't have much leverage. Still he has to look at the potential audience he can capture which can go well for the future. Hell if Froch fights like he did at the weekend, his career will last longer than most expected.

 

good. hope they can get it done and sort him out some proper coverage. he has been boxing top fighters and he should have got a deal done a while back.

 

Id agree with you in that respect. He will have to take a bit of a hit for the Johnson fight, but he can demand a lot more if he fights Ward and then Bute. From the point of view of getting on Sky, its ideal that he is fighting Johnson next. Winnable fight against a credible opponent. There is no way Sky would of been interested if he had to rematch AA after beating him a near shutout, couldn't sell that.

 

Really? Haye is a strap holding heavyweight who's selling close to a mill in PPV's and that's where his earnings are coming from. I agree with you though they can't start low balling him, both sides have to be realistic but probabily moreso Hennessy then Sky. Carl is not gonna be offered what he has rightfully earnt, it's a shame but just the reality of the situation.

Hennessy messed up his ITV deal so we'll see.

 

He doesn't exactly say sky, but yeah Smith been very vocal this week so id say they have got the ball rolling already. Maybe he could be on starmatthew's new channel
